How statement and proof provenance work

The first chip identifies the source of the statement or construction; the second identifies the source of its local proof or verification.

  • Literature-sourced: the exact statement appears in a cited source; only wording and notation differ.
  • AI-adapted: a semantically identical restatement of literature-sourced material, modulo indexing, notation, and boundary cases adopted by the library.
  • AI-generated: a genuinely novel statement formulated by AI, with no source for the claim itself.

These labels describe origin, not correctness: citations and verification chips remain separate evidence.

Omitting tau can move an exact fine root

Statement refuted

The claim that replacing the tau-corrected coarse right side by the restricted fine right side Rfh always preserves an exact fine-grid root is false.

Facts & Assumptions

Given: The two-dimensional fine residual Fh(u)=Au with A=(2−1−12), right side fh=A(1,0)T, prolongation P=(1,1)T, iterate restriction Iu=(u1+u2)/2, residual restriction R=PT, and rediscretized coarse residual FH(v)=3v.

[F1]

Finite-budget nonlinear FAS two-grid cycle: the FAS coarse right side includes FH(Iu)+R(fh−Fh(u)) and the prolongated update is u+P(v−Iu).

[F2]

An exact fine root is fixed by the FAS V/W cycle: with the tau-corrected right side and the selected zero-defect coarse root, an exact fine root is fixed.

Counterexample

1.1givenalgebra

Set u∗=(1,0)T. Then fh=Au∗=(2,−1)T, so u∗ is an exact fine root. Its restriction is Iu∗=1/2 and the restricted right side is Rfh=2−1=1.

2.1F1step 1.1algebra

With tau omitted, the coarse equation is 3v=Rfh=1, whose exact solution is v=1/3. The fine correction is u∗+P(v−Iu∗)=(1,0)T+(1,1)T(1/3−1/2)=(5/6,−1/6)T, which is not u∗. Thus the false claim fails for this SPD fine system and this specified rediscretized coarse operator.

For the same inputs, the correct tau is FH(Iu∗)−Rfh=3/2−1=1/2, so the tau-corrected coarse right side is 3/2 and its selected root is v=1/2=Iu∗. The resulting correction is zero, in accord with [F2].
